allows this crap to happen if he is all that and a bag of chips??

"Something to hold onto..." WHAT?? That God, should he exist, completely ignores us? What, Gretchen, what is there to 'hold onto'?? Either your omnipotent, omniscient God allowed this to happen or willed it to happen. He allowed or caused the murder of 26 innocent lives, the majority of those children, to make some obscure God-point that so far, nobody is quite getting.

And that REASSURES you??

WTF?
